A ZONK OF PARKS. “The city is surrounded by @ zone or belt of parks which only require to be connected by « circuit roadway or drive that wil bring them into communication with each other. For pur- poses of illustration we will make tho Capitol a Starting point in our proposed circuit. Pro- ceedimg by way of North Capito! street—which ‘we will suppose tobe graded and paved, also Beavily curbed and provided with Lampe’ sur- mounting massive, artistically designed col- umns, planted with a proper kind of shade trees and otherwise improved as a broad, straight avenue connecting city with country — we reach Harewood Park and the property of the Military Asylum, several hundreds of originally posseming great natural beauty and the improvements of which have been conceived and executed with admirable taste of adaptation; the gracefully winding ave- nues and roads are in fine keeping with the gentle undulations and carvatures of the origi- nal surface; the natural vegetation is fairly Utilized, art and nature are so welded together that they form « pleasingmold. Asan example of what may be termed the natural style of landseape gardening they cannot well be ex- celled, and if the improvements are completed im the same spirit that has so far influenced operations the characteristics of this style will be amply exhibited in this section of our circuit horizon.

This por- ticn of our circuit embraces the so-called ‘pic- turesque style” of landscape adornment, which f always more a style of adoption than of arti- ficial creation. ALONG THE RIVER. Leaving the undeveloped beauties of this lo- eality our drive is continued by following the course of the river more or less closely to Georgetown, where we reach an open and ex- tented view of the waters and wooded banks of the Potomac. Skirting the grounds of the na- tional observatory, which are thus included in eur circuit, the monument, Smithsonian and ether public buildings come in sight, and, en- tering the reservation south of the Executive Mansion, the Treasury, State and other depart- ments are casily reached. A bridge spanning the canal at a suitable point will form a connec- tion with the monument jot, and here it may be safe to remark that but very few of the citi- gens of Washington have any idea of the beau- tifal scenery that is presented to the view from these js. Standing on the bank the eve sees the river expanded into the serenity a €alm secinsion of an inland lake. The poetical mind will reflect upon its river existence and trace it to ite brooklet source in some sequestered nook, from which it emerges and meanders into the open light, re- freshing iteelf by an occasional dip under a shady bank and again sparkling in the sun; or as it frets and foams down the rocky cataract indistivetly visible through the wooded canopy till as it nears the haunts of man it expands in portion and assumes placid maturity—a emblem of human progress. So much is our appreciation of the beauties of nature dependent upon the association of ideas. From ‘the monument lot to the Capitol the reserva- tions form « series of parks. where the im- Provements are already far advanced toward completion in the more highly decorated mode of treatment and where the geo- metrical or architectural style of garden- fng can be mos: fully displayed in connection with the buildin; grounds and buildings of the Agricultural Department are rapidiy being finished; the main features of the designs for these improvements have been transferred and the details will gradually be filled in. The arboretum now being formed, comprising, as it does, the greatest number of ies and varieties of hardy trees and shrubs t have ever been collected and classified in ‘one park, will in a few years become of scien- tific as well as of scenic interest. These im- provements have also been made and the roads ‘and walks located with « view to a proper con- Rection with b ig rete: conform with the style of treatment already inaugurated and to which they are best adapted. — THE SLEEPING How « Thoughtless Buck Disturbed the Slombers of a Well-Known Washingtonian. t to say venison while Mills said a wel porter last night. tany venison, I can't keep the story any longer, it's too good.

Correspondence of The Evening Star. Freperick, Mp., January 26, 1893. Elmer G. Fahrney of Frederick. who visited Washington on Satarday and Sunday, tells of an experience there which speaks with much credit of the efficiency of the police department | of that city. Fabrney had a bicycle in Wash- ington and was taking it to the train to bring to Frederick when an alarm of fire was sounded. He left the wheel in front of the store of a friend, whom he asked to look after it. and ran to the fire. In the course of a few minutes the attention of the friend was attracted in another direction, and in the meantime two fellows that looked like tramps and had been noticed handling the wheel made way with it. When Fabrney returned he found the wheel missing. On Sunday he gave the case into the hands of 8 policeman, and by 3 o'clock that afternoon the wheel was returned to him safe and sound. Mrs. William S. Shankle, living near Yellow Springs, this county, got up at 4 o'clock the er Morning, nursed her ten-months-old babe and laid him down in the bed along side of his father, while she went down stairs to get break- fast. When the father of the child waked wy and turned over to look at it it wasdead. It was in perfect health when its mother laid it down.

The new industry recently established in this city for the manufacture of straw hats and other goods out of straw has begun operations, with s numer of hands employed.

They put it on house wrappers, boudoir and tea gowns, ball will continue to do so until the millenium. It was fashionable in revolutionary days and has always been in Forms. Why? Because it is nesemine: $0. the fem.aine figure and consequently dear to our scot enslavers’ littlehearts. In trailing gowns it is most fetching, permitting the trail to hang and sweep with peculiar grace. “This reminds me of what a veil does for the face. It wonderfully enhances s beautiful face, and helps out ugly and plain features. And they manage it with as much skill asa fan. How daintily our little birdie raises it to touch her thread-lace toy handkerchief to her kissable lips or the tip of her little nosie wosie. It's a cute, cunning motion and shows off « small well-gloved hand to advantage. Women just dote on veils. And a black dotted veil or one of thin thread with small meshes does the most execution when @ pretty face and irresistible eyes aro beneath it. The heavy thread veil con- ceals complexion defects. “It's all in knowing how to dress,” continued the cloth slasher, “‘and the possession of this happy faculty distinguishes one woman from another. Of course, modistes and ladies’ tailors help them out greatly, but the best dressed women are those who have ideas of their own. Take the plain girl with stylish tastes and ideas. A man forgets that she is not Pretty, cepecially if she is bright and affable tty women always receive attention and you can't get around the fact that men want th retty girl first, but the stylish plain girl runs er a close second. Whether plain or pretty, women, 80 far asthe adornment of their per- sons is concerned, have one central idea, which is to dress so well that our admiration is com- pelled and the jealousy of their own sex aroused.” —_——.--— The Railroads Must Act Speedi! From the Financial Review. “Waiving present consideration of benefits or injuries to abutting private owners, there are two general questions that must be satis- factorily settled. If not correctly adjusted now on broad lines which embrace both future as well as present conditions, they will come up to plague us hereafter with greater severity and friction. 1. The railroad companies will be blind to their own interests if they do not, by suitable grade crossings and other approved safety a] Pliances, protect the movement of both people and property acroga and along their routes upon the traveled streets and avenues of the city. Money saved by a false economy how will be money lost tenfold hereafter. Nothing stands still in this world—everything grows or dies. If railroad companies fail to comply with the reasonable demands of today, they will be forced at enhanced cost to mect’ the perhaps unreasonable demands of the future city witl its greater values and its densor populations The editorials of Tue Star, the resolutions of the board of trade and the complaints from merebants and citizens’ organizations are sim- ply the growing evidences of a public sentiment founded upon actual business and municipal necessities which will sooner or later be strong enough to compel attention, “2. The District will be equally blind to its interests if it does not give to the railroads sufficient terminal facilities for handling freight and passengers with convenience, speed and economy. If these conditions are lacking or deficient, freight blockades are inevitable and rates will be high. ‘The vital question is not where a passenger depot is located. People ride to and from depots in street cars, cabs and private convey- ances. and within a reasonable range it is not of such supreme importance whether they ride a square more or less in this or that direction. But every one is interested in the prompt and cheap handling of freight. Every of ad- ditional haul which is imposed opens a barrel of four from th® car to the warehouse or to the consumer, means, sooner or later, an additional cost to every loaf of bread eaten by the com- munity. Every failure by reason of want of trackage, freight yards, depots and otner re- ceiving and distributing facilities on the partof the railroads mean delay and expense, which are ultimately paid by en consumer. A cheap city to live in is impossible without cheap, juick and abundant facilities for handling and livering the people and things coming into and going out from it.” One Man’s Opinion on Negro Suffrage. John C. Wickliffe in the February Forum. ‘The political result to the negro may be dis- posed of ina word—nothing. He stands just where he did twenty-five years ago—a cipher on the political blackboard, valuable only when controlled by other figures, and in nowise affecting the result by reason of his own worth. ‘The restfit to the country generally has been to add a certain number of votes to the number necessary in the electoral college to choose a President and to increase the membership of the lower house of Congress. The result to the southern states has been to give them a greater weight than before in presidential elections and toadd to their influence in the federal legislature, while the result to the northern states has been correspondingly to reduce their representation and influence. And the same are the results to the two great political parties. e republican arty by the fifteenth amendment made for iteelf a club to use in political warfare. The democratic party has now wrested that weapon from its grasp and is biennially using it to batter its maker. ‘This naturally leads us to the remedy for the existing state of affairs. In politics, as in all other matters, the base line both of motive and of action should be honesty. That expediency which permits wrong to be done that right may come of it has no more place in the science of overnment than in morals: and in politica, as in mathematics, the shortest line to any point is the direct one. ' In taking the direct line to the \ecessful solution of the negro problem the two great bodies of workers will each have to abandon something, to surrender some of the ground which it occupies. The northern idea of negro political equality must be abandoned; the southern advantage of additional political representation must be surrendered. ‘This resolves itself into a repeal of the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States and a remission of the question of quali- fication for the suffrage to the several states, ——— +02 - Widows’ Pensions. To the Eaitor of The Evening Star: Iseo in yesterday's Stam that the subcom- mittee of the House appropriations committee have agreed to recommend the cutting off of pensions of all widows who were not married previous to i870. I enlisted May 6, 1861, in company F, 19th Ilinois infantry, and was mus- tered out in July, 1864. Was married in 1874 and have ten children. If I were to die, to say that my widow should not receive a pension be- eanse f did not marry her until after 1870 is, in my opinion, the most outrageous proposi- | tion ever heard of in connection witn pension legislation. If the pension list must be cut down to satisfy the demand for reform take mine away now, but don’t take it from my widow after Iam dead and gone. H. E. Wap. poten stab cosh ‘The Garbage Service.

A Complaint From Honolulu That The Reci- Procity is One Sided, “The United States,” said a gentleman who has but recently returned from Honolulu, and whose position is such that his remarks are au- thoritative, to Tax Stam representative at one of the hotels thir morning, ‘cannot afford to allow the Hawaiian Islands to pass into the control of a foreign power. Despite commer- cial relations, territorial prosperity, friendly feeling and other links which now unite the two countries, this contingency is not impos- sible. I am spoaking, of course, in advance of the present time. Things # the islands are ata lowebb. There are many failures, business is dull, the volume of trade with the United States has fallen off largely and many of the sugar planters are having difficulty in main- taining their financial equilibrium. There are invested in sugar plantations of the islands over $35,000,000 of American capital. The annual trade with the United States is 18,000,000. The islands afford the only harbor between this country and China and Japan. They are the key to the Pacific. Their near proximity to the United States, the present trend of sentiment toward American control if their government is to become extinct, are but among the many cogent reasons why the United States should own them when they cease to own themselves, for the Hawnitan race, as ia well known, is dying out. Consequently a policy advantageous rather than deterrent to the island's interests, propiti- atory rather than antagonistic, would appear the best to both sides. We must live, and we are mainly dependent upon the export of our sugar for maintenance. If we don't derive a revenue from some source we can’t buy your ods. The United States is our natural market. fore the abolition of the duty on sugar, under our reciprocity treaty, we thrived. We admitted certain of your goods free and you took our sugar. ‘Then you removed the tariff, gave your own sugar producers a bounty, but left us out. So the reciprocity treaty now exists for you alone. We joined in the list of other sugar- producing countries, but you continue to send Zour exports to us free, ‘The planters on the islands should have been included with your own and shared the bounty. Tne reciprocity treaty expires by limitation in 1896, and this involves many highly important issues, one of which is the Pearl river harbor. The harbor be- longs to the United States during the continuance of the treaty. It has not, consequently, atitle in rpetuity thereto. Suppose, uniess the United tates deals liberally with the islands, that at the limitation of the treaty foi offers greater inducements to the is the United States, would it not be fair to as® sume that such an offer would be accepted? Such nation would deriand reciprocal ad- vantages, and that of paramount importance is a conling station or some sort of military foot- hold. Once this end gained, there would be no relinguishment. In view of these and numer- ous other important issues, it would seem that this country could affor:i to be liberal. Let it lay acable, guarantee the €2.000,000 debt, give our sugar industry a chance to live and it will have its Pearl river harbor in perpetuity, occupy a position amounting practically to a protectorate and one from which it could not be dethroned by any foreign power.” sender ctu — Ea THE DAVENPORT INVESTIGATION.® ‘The House Committee Recommends the Repeal of the Federal Election Laws. The special committee of the House of Rep- Tesentatives of which Mr. Ashabel Fitch is chairman has concluded its report into the su- | pervision and administration of the federal election laws in the southern district of New York. The committee organized September 8 last in New York city, and from that time until and including election day, November 8, held eleven meetings in that city, taking the testi- mony of forty-six witnesses, The reportstates that testimony was promptly given by the United States marshal and his as- sistants, but the chief supervisor of elections for the southern district refused any obedience to their summons. ‘The evidence taken by the committee relates entirely to the administra- tion and supervision of the federal election laws in New York city and county. The com- mittee, after carefully studying the operations of the federal election laws, expressed the opin- ion “that all of these laws have entirely failed to produce any good resulta in the direction of the purity of elections or the protection of the ballot box and have been productive of such | serious and dangerous results that they ought | at once to be repealed,” and the reasons given | for such repeal, as stated, are because they re- sult in no conviction of offenders and are, therefore, useless to prevent or punish crimes, are expensive and are fruitful of constant and continuing frauds upon the treasury. The committee devotes some space to a con- sideration of the above mentioned points, re- fers to the framing of the laws under which the chief supervisor of elections acted and makes the following declaration in regard to tha offi- cial: “He holds his office by a tenure which makes him practically independent of any criti- m or danger of removal. He not only holds this office of chief supervisor of elections, but he has also had himself appointed a United | States commissioner, so that he can sit as an examining magistrate. With the power of the government behind him and with the money of the government to use, he has managed for Years a detective bureau, by means of which he a8 Bought to get proof of the crimes which he bas claimed existed in the city of New York. When in the first capacity as a detective he has obtained such proofs as he withes to use, he then in his second capacity as a public | Seevoann issues the warrants for the arrest of he alleged criminals. Sometimes he gave these warrants to the United States marshal to be executed, and sometimes in a third capacity as & sheriff he seems to have made the arrest of the accused parties through his own deputies. Then in his fourth capacity as a United States commissioner sitting as & magistrate he has heard his own charges against the prisoners, which he pre- sented to himself as judge, by himself as prose- cuting attorney, and has decided himself upon their guilt or innocence.” i A MAN WHO SAV: BALTIMORE. An Army Officer Whose Tact and Diplo- macy Averted a Fearful Riot, “There goes a man to whom the city of Bal- timore should some day or other erect a big and expensive monument,” said an old-time politician toa Star reporter while the} standing in front of Tux Sra office the other afternoon. ‘The speaker pointed tom medium- sized and well-knit soldierly figure, that, wrapped up ina heavy blue overcoat, was mov- ing toward the Capitol. ‘My candidate for a monument,” said he, “tis Gen. Eugene A. Carr of the army, and I will tell you in about two minutes why I think Baltimore ought, to hold him mm grateful remembrance. Shortly after the war, while Andrew Johnson was President, some of the colored men of Baltimore orga ized themselves into regiments, and after get- ing their uniforms and arms they wanted to parade and asked the authorities to protect them in so doing. It was a most embarrassing situation. The government had not troops enough in the vicinity, and in fact did not wish to take « hand in encouraging a negro parade and at the same time could not forbid the cere- mony. Gen. Carr was then acting inspector neral of the department commanded by ‘mery. He made several visits to Baltimore and became satisfied that if those regiments led. as they seemed determined to 1, there would be a bloody encounter the streets, with the killing of women and children and the destruction of property that might be expected. Finally, and of his own motion, he got the principal men of the regi- ments together and by the use of arguments and appeals he induced them to defer the pub- lie ap} which every thinking man so much. And there was no parade until a much later and very much less ¢: plosive time.

An effort is being made to secure a larger ap- Propriation from the commissioners of this county for the public schools of the county next year, The amount given the school commis- sioners now is entirely inadequate to the pay- ment of such salaries as the teachers earn and should receive, and the result is there is much | likelihood of some of the best teachers of the county going elsewhere.

Lack of Proper Information Interferes With the Preparation of = Program. ‘The Navy Department is hampered somewhat in preparing a program of fleet evolutions and providing proper anchorages for foreign ves- sels on the occasion of the naval review at | Hampton Roads because of the lack of informa- tion as to the number and character of the vee- sels that will participate. So far nota single foreign country bas even thtimated the strength of the fleet it proposes sending, and it seems to be the general purpose of all to wait the action of some other power before giving out the size of ite representation. The great naval powers are all anxious to outdo one another in this display, and not any of them is in any hurry to let this government know what ships will be in line in April for fear some other nation will surpass them both in point of num- | ber and character of design. | Great Britain is particularly concerned as to the number of ships other nations will have over here, and bas gone so far es to cable her naval attache at the British legation to inquire at the Navy Department for his information. It is said that England wants to make her dis- lay far surpass that of France, Germany and italy, and she is equally desirous of having the first place in line among the foreign fleets. To do this she must see that the date of commis- sion of her senior officer goes back further than that of any other present, and it is safe to pre- | dict that the “ruler of the sea” will see that this in #0, and thus have her allies fall in be- hind the English pennant in the vorage to New York from Fort Monroe. Everything in the navy goes by seniority, and the same will apply to the placing of the fleets at the review. 2 MBIAN HALF DOLLARS. Director Leech Defends the Design Against Criticism. Mr. E. 0. Leech, the director of the mint, | earnestly protests against jokes and slings ha ing the new Columbian half dollars as their ‘object, and declares that that coin is remarka- ble for artistic excellence. “It may be interesting to the public to know.” said Mr. Leech to a Stan reporter, “that the models for this coin were prepared Mr. O. L. Warner, the eminent sculptor of New York, and Mr. F. D. Millet, the chief of color of the Columbian exposition, and met with the ap- proval of all the officers and artists of the ex- position. Tam somewhat familiar with coms and coinage matters, having spent twenty years of my life in the mint service, and have but re- | cently returned from Europe, where I had oc- jeasion to visit many of the mints and to see | most of the silver coins of the continent, and I have no hesitation in saying that in my judg- ment the Columbian half dollar is the most beautiful silver coin of modern mintage. “The head of Columbus isa profile from a well-known portrait, and whether it looks like Columbus or not, which no one knows, it 1s certainly a strong, noble and dignified head, showing great determination and force of and just the head of such @ man as . described Columbus to be. The reverse of the coin is @ very correct and beau | tiful representation of a ship such as was used | in those days, with the outlines of the two | continents and the meridians represented on globes, with the dates 1492-1892. “Certainly nothing could be more appro- | anniversary of the discovery of America than a portrait of the discoverer and a representation of the vessel in which he sailed and the two worlds he united, “The lettering of the coin is highly artistic and the mechanical execution the very best known to modern mintage. There have bee no coins struck at our mints in recent years in the execution of which, both in the prepara- tion of the blanks and the striking of the pieces, as much care has been taken as with these pieces, as it was believed that many of them would be preserved as souvenirs of the exposition. “One prominent reason for the criticism of modern coins is that numismatists and people ed- ucated in art expect too much in the matter of coinage. They are familiar, possibls,with theold Roman and Greek coins, metallic monuments of the epochs in which they were struck, with the | portraits of the great men of their times, some | struck with impression fief on one side and an intaglio on the other, frequently having de- ressions in the metal to produce shades, &c., ~autiful works of art. “But beautiful ax these old coins are they | would be most unsuitable for the active com- mercial age in which we live. Every teller of a bank would be complaining that they would not le, that the holes were receptacles for dirt, nd they would not be in active circulation a year before the entire impression in relief would be worn off. ‘The idea of relief and abrasion never entered into the question of ancient coinage. In the preparation of ancient | coins the artist indulged his fancy and taste to the fullest extent, and valuable coins were struck as medals are now, without regard to the amount of pressure required or the number of lows from the hammer or press to perfect the impression. usually struck many times by the dies (the Joseph Francis medal over 100 times) in order to bring out the relief. But the object of modern coinage is to have the very lowest re- lief possible and display the design—a mere film of relief—so as to prevent abrasion and the | rapid wearing off of the designs; so that it ma; be truthfully said that art can scarcely find a field for its display in modern coins, it now being a question of automatic machinery, with a tube on one side of the press where the ‘plan- chets are fed to the dies, and a box on the other side where the finished coins drop at the rate of 80a minute. When I visited the royal mint in London recently they were striking sovereigns and haif sovereigns at the rate of 120 minute. “All that can be expected in modern comage is an appropriate design with perfect mechanical execution. If the Columbian half dollar does not possess these merits then I am no judge of coins. At the same time I fully concur in the | suggestion that there should be a national com- mission of artists to select the works of art pur- chased by the government and that one of the duties should be the selection of new designs for our coins. “When we consider, however, that the eminent | artists in the employ ‘of the Columbian exbibi- tion passed on the merits of this coin it may be said to have passed the ‘art’ test pe eek aaa CORROBORATING GALLAGHER, Others in the Poisoning Plot Testify in Re- gard to It.
